Akham Nilabirdhwaja Singh Poet Free verse

Pros and Cons

I hid in the pandemic,
although I got infected,
fearing they would laugh
at me. 
For it prevented them
from performing
their swaggering 
ceremonies,
functions,and parties,
and saved me
from the pain of
non-willingly following
societal norms I don't like.
I feel free and comforted
amidst the atmosphere
of simplicity,
but their egos tried
to surface
during the pandemic
as well .
